Even though Oklahoma weighed in heavily in favor of Hillary Clinton over 2 1/2 months ago, the governor of the Sooner State has endorsed Barack Obama whose only county win in Oklahoma was Oklahoma County.

As much as I love Oklahoma and love Gov. Henry, this is pretty much a useless endorsement, save for the superdelegate that Obama receives, considering the only Democrat who could do remotely well in Oklahoma is Hillary Clinton.  Believe me, Barack Obama will keep John McCain under 60%, but Big Mac will go no lower than 57%, with at least a 15 point win.  Hillary would keep McCain well under 55% with no more than a 10 point win.  Since it looks like Hillary Clinton is probably not going to get the nomination, then I'll be the first one to put Oklahoma back to a solid-red state, just not quite as big of a win as 2004.

As I said, from an Obama campaign standpoint, its pretty much a useless endorsement save for the superdelegate he receives.
